Hi John, Will and everyone else interested.
I've just had a chat with my contact at Sky who is a senior manager in
the Sky Accessibility team. The Sky Talker is an auxiliary box which you
plug in to your existing sky setup. Its compatible with the standard and
plus boxes though not the HD unfortunately. It will provide voice output
similar to that on the freeview box recently released by the RNIB, though
to summarize this includes channel and program information including
channel number, program name, channel name, duration etc. You can also
access the sky setup menu and electronic program guide, set up reminders
with the standard box or recordings with the plus box and adjust the
volume of the synthesized speech independently of the programming. The
box is going to be launched on the 26th of October with limited stock
availability and there is a one off cost of £45 to buy the equipment on a
self install basis.
All the best, Ibrahim.
